Memphis Belle backing

Wallpaper Description:

This plane is painted in the colours of the most famous flying fortress of World war two the "Memphis belle"the first B-17 to complete its tour of duty of 25 combat missions,The Memphis Belle was the subject of a world war two documentary, and a 1990 movie which recounted its feat.As an earlier model B-17f, the Memphis Bell lacks the "chin turret"under the nose of B-17Gs like Yankee lady.The B-17f could carry 8,000 pounds of bomds,twice the capacity of the B-17e, but at a cost of flying 70 miles per hour slower, making it easier for enemy aircraft and artillery to shoot down.As partial compensation for this the B-17f had two more machine guns than the B-17e,and the 0.30 inch machine gun carried by the B-17e was upgraded to a 0.50 inch machine gun.
